Just said to an officmate (re the news) that this has been a heck of a week. He said, "what do you mean?" - failing to see the how the loss of either "means" much. We live in a very dark world.

Figgers. And you know they're profiting from the viewership/ratings. Leeches.

It's like with Arafat. Only we're not rooting for his death.

I really thought they'd learn from the Arafat experience to be very careful.
To: HairOfTheDog
Yeah, but with Arafat it was funny.

Happy birthday g'nad! Got ya a hat!

It is amazing that these same traditions have been followed for centuries without much change. There are some that I had never heard about. I was reading a blog excerpt about the sequence of events when a Pope dies, and the mechanics of the conclave to elect a new one.
John Paul II has been Pope for so long, that there are LOTS of people who either have never seen this, or were too young when he was made Pope to remember it. It is a very profound event.
It is also somewhat cathartic, after the last two weeks of anguish with Terri Schiavo, that the Pope is approaching death with such peace and tranquility, and in our sadness we can be happy for him, as well.

Squalls out on the gulf stream
Big storm's comin' soon
I passed out in my hammock
And God I slept 'til way past noon
Stood up and tried to focus
I hoped I wouldn't have to look far
I knew I could use a Bloody Mary
So I stumbled next door to the bar...

It'll all be better when Hillary is President. She'll protect us from hurricanes.

Not too painful. They actually said "here, this is a project that's in your job description."
